ABT's

[Roger456]

Cabelas has the two and three dozen Chile Grills on sale. Approx $20 cheaper than direct

Is that a local sale or on the website too (can't find it)?

Saw this chile corer on the Iron Desert website:



Looks just like a vegetable peeler to me...

I use a vegetable peeler to gut chilis...

It works then! Thanks Roger, you saved me $3.

Thanks for the link, TF.

When I do ABT's, I slice the jalepeno in half, then clean out using a spoon. Fill each half with cream cheese, wrap in bacon and grill till the bacon is done. Use toothpics to hold the bacon in place.

I haven't done them in awhile but iI used to make ABT's from HELL!!

I would stuff the jalapenos with;
- habanero cheddar
- homemade habanero relish
- left over pulled pork/brisket
- homemade hot sauce

Not for the timid.

I think some call ABTs made with habaneros "ADTs" (Atomic Dragon Turds). I call 'em a long day in the head.

Yep, twin burn. I once took a habanero, split it, removed the seeds and poured a wheat beer over it. It seemed like a good idea at the time.

Ok guys I'll plead ignorance. I make something just like this, but I don't know what the hell ABT stands for. (I always call them poppers)

Thanks Gary. That does sound more fun.

You could try Mexican Roulette-

Six ABT's on a plate (or one for each person at the table); they are run-of the-mill supermarket jalapenos: not very hot.

One of them is stuffed with Habaneros or other suitable hot chiles (birds eye maybe).

Cold vienna-style lager on the side.

Make up a bunch in advance; ABT's freeze well and in fact I think they they cook better from a frozen state. Then you can have fun at a moment's notice....

[BeerNBrisket]

Never thought about freezing 'em before. Thanks for the idea Kinsman. I'll have to break out the foodsaver next time I'm making abt's.

[Keith]

All this talk about ABTs is making me hungry! C'mon Spring! My CharGriller isn't doing anything this winter except sitting under a cover, since it's 6*F this morning.

ABT's, we call um poppers also. What ever you call them, you have to call them good eats. We make poppers a little different. Cut a jalapeno in half, and clean out seeds and vanes. Mix the stuffing, and that can be anything you want, as long as you use cream cheese as a binder. Crab, ground turkey, dirty rice, craw fish (ground) work great. Mix the stuffing and the cream cheese into a stickey mass, then chill in the frige over night. Roll the mixture into a ball (about 1 Tbl.) and press into the half halapeno so it looks the same shape as an un cut halapeno. Dip the new formed pepper in a mixture of thin pancake batter, and roll in cracker crumbs. Deep fry and enjoy.------We make bunches of these in the summer and freeze them to enjoy all winter.
